June 1990

another 80 segments of the Berlin Wall are auctioned by LeLé Berlin and Galerie Park Palace on behalf of VEB Limex-Bau Import-Export in Monte Carlo

October 1990

GDR is history. German Ministry of Defence takes over the deconstruction and sell-out of the border installations

December 1990

the Wall has vanished almost entirely from the Berlin cityscape

the Berlin Senate keeps a reserve of several Wall segments for future special purposes

Since 1991

until middle/end of 1990s the worldwide interest in Berlin Wall segments is unabated

in the following years (last 2013 in Paris) , every now and then, whole segments or part of segments are auctioned

Wall segments are temporarily available even on ebay

the track of some Wall segments vanishes: they are missing

other segments are removing with their owners over the years (sometimes even more than once)

yet others are changing their owners, but not automatically their site…

Presence

The interest in German/German history, symbolised by pieces of the Berlin Wall, continues: new memorials are and will be built around the world, existing sites are enhanced or removed (or unfortunately deconstructed).
